When I had covid in Jan and then my appendix tried to kill me, it was.. well the whole thing was a bit unreal. First the morphine dreams, then I got Nurse Ratchet with 4 masks on who didn’t want to come in my room.
But when I came out of anesthesia, not only did I have an oxygen mask on, but a covid mask on top of that. I laughed. I did. It was ridiculous since they were all triple and quadruple masked themselves, gloves, and gowned as well. But good thing they put a covid mask on me.
I know it’s not the same thing. I was just sharing lol.
It is difficult to explain for me, but essentially it is a criticism of insensitive Health Care Providers. The Author is some sort of a Writer or Journalist. He was seriously pissed off about some of his Care Takers. Still, he tarried for several years, stewed actually before he put out the work.
Just saying.
Book is ‘Blue Water White Water.’ Author is Samuels, Robert I think. I read it so long ago that it just might be time for me to do a reread.
